I've noticed a number of times that whenever I would check out the
"System Status" section of the frontend, that it always reported a very
low number for my swap space. I looked into it enough to ask the
following question:
Shouldn't the "getMemStats ()" method in "libs/libmyth/util.cpp" use the
"sinfo.mem_unit" field to determine the sizing of all other values in sinfo
before it simply divides everything by the macro "MB" (1024 * 1024) ?
The code in question follows:
#--------------------------------
mythtv/libs/libmyth/util.cpp:
#--------------------------------
#define MB (1024 * 1024)
bool getMemStats(int &totalMB, int &freeMB, int &totalVM, int &freeVM)
{
#ifdef __linux__
struct sysinfo sinfo;
if (sysinfo(&sinfo) == -1)
{
VERBOSE(VB_ALL, "sysinfo() error");
return false;
}
else
totalMB = sinfo.totalram/MB,
freeMB = sinfo.freeram/MB,
totalVM = sinfo.totalswap/MB,
freeVM = sinfo.freeswap/MB;
